ODE Solenoid Valves for Municipal Drinking Water Systems (NSF)

NSF/ANSI 61 & 169 Certified Solutions for Safe Potable Water Flow

When it comes to components used in municipal drinking water systems, quality, safety, and compliance are non-negotiable. One name that stands out in the world of precision-engineered fluid control is ODE, the Italian manufacturer known for its robust and reliable solenoid valves.

Among its many innovations, ODE offers a select range of NSF-certified solenoid valves that are specifically designed for use in potable water applications, making them ideal for municipalities, water treatment facilities, and other drinking water systems.

Why NSF Certification Matters

NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certification is a globally recognized standard that confirms a product complies with strict public health and safety standards. For valves and plumbing components, NSF/ANSI 61 is the standard that ensures materials do not leach harmful contaminants into drinking water.

Using NSF-certified valves helps:

• Ensure regulatory compliance.
• Provide safe water delivery without chemical contamination.
• Maintain consumer trust in public infrastructure.

A wide range of ODE solenoid valves certified under NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 169, making them suitable for use in systems where water is intended for human consumption.

Lead-Free Brass Models (NSF Certified)

These models are manufactured using lead-free brass (Pb < 0.25%), fully compliant with NSF drinking water regulations. They are durable, versatile, and designed for dependable performance in drinking water applications.

21W Series

• Material: Lead-free brass
• Type: Indirect acting, normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO)
• Port sizes: 3/8"-1-1/2”
• Applications: Sampling valves, metering, compact appliance feeds

21J Series

• Material: Lead-free brass and PPS
• Type: direct acting, NC/NO (only NC is NSF)
• Port sizes: 1/8”, push-in
• Applications: Water filtration manifolds, medium-flow municipal systems

21A Series

• Material: Lead-free brass and PPS
• Type: High-cycle performance, direct acting, NC and NO
• Subplate, 1/8”, 1/4"
• Applications: Point-of-entry systems, beverage dispensing, vending units

21L Series

• Material: SS
• Type: direct acting, NC
• Port size: 1/4"
• Applications: Bulk water lines, filtration system inlet/outlet

PPS Body Models (NSF Certified)

PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) is a high-temperature, chemically resistant plastic approved for food and potable water use. These valves are ideal for systems that require non-metallic flow paths or lightweight components.

21J-P Series

• Material: PPS
• Type: Direct acting
• Port sizes: 1/4", 3/8"
• Applications: Compact RO systems, automated faucets, chlorinated water systems

21JP Series

• Material: PPS with reinforced seat
• Type: Pilot-operated
• Applications: UV water filtration modules, modular purification skids

21AP Series

• Material: PPS
• Type: Compact solenoid valve
• Applications: Dispensing systems, high-purity water distribution

31AP Series

• Material: PPS
• Type: 2-way and 3-way configurations
• Port sizes: 1/4", 3/8", 1/2"
• Applications: Smart water manifolds, filter bypass systems, automated filling

Stainless Steel Models (NSF Certified)

For environments exposed to corrosion, aggressive water chemistry, or outdoor weathering, stainless steel valves offer unmatched reliability and lifespan. ODE uses 316L stainless steel in all its potable-grade valves.

21L Series

• Material: 316L stainless steel
• Type: Direct acting and pilot-operated
• Port sizes: 1/4", 3/8", 1/2"
• Applications: Chlorinated water, high-pressure municipal lines, outdoor installations

31L Series

• Material: 316L stainless steel
• Type: Compact design
• Applications: Remote automation panels, smart water meters, underground valve enclosures
